"Of course, Miss Summer Night, the whole Internet is talking about you right now." The black-haired witch saluted her, "My name is Lin, and I'm the head of this port. ”

"So my name has been dug up?"

"Not only the name, but also the witch who signed a 'painting' contract, according to the description of you, also drew your appearance."

Lin said as he took out the crystal ball, swiped it a few times, and handed the screen to Xia Ye.

"It's really like ......," Summer Night exclaimed.

"But compared to real people, it's still slightly inferior."

"Thank you for the compliment, Ms. Lin, you are also a witch with a noble temperament."

"There's no need for too many pleasantries, Miss Summer Night, what are you looking for me?"

Summer Night recounted what Yaha had just told her, and finally said, "I want to auction whale oil, but it will take space and manpower, and if the port can help, we are willing to give 2%-3% of the proceeds of the auction as a reward." ”

After listening to this, Lin pondered for a while, and then said, "Your plan is feasible, we are willing to help, and it is completely free of charge, and there is no need for any magic." ”

"Free?" Not only did the summer night not be happy because of this, but a trace of vigilance flashed on her face.

Lin caught that hint of vigilance.

"Don't be so nervous, Miss Summer Night." Lin smiled, "The reason why I proposed to be free is just because what you want to do today coincides with what I have always wanted to do." ”

"Tell me about it?"

"Actually, we've always wanted to set up a whale oil exchange at the port where anyone can trade whale oil freely, rather than having almost all of the bargaining power of the three largest refiners, Exxon, Amok and Xell, as is the case now.

"Our idea was approved by Aether Exploration, but only by agreement, and they would not give any help other than 'approval', and of course, we had anticipated this situation, although we were a subsidiary of Aether Exploration, but so were Ackerson, Amok and Xell, and it was clear that they had more say at the top than we did.

"As a result, our 'whale oil exchange' has always been in name only, and the captains who have returned from whaling still habitually sell whale oil directly to Exxon, Amok or Chael."

Hearing this, Xia Ye had basically understood Lin's thoughts.

"You want to take this opportunity from us to make your exchange more than just on paper." She said.

"That's right." Lin nodded, "If we can, we hope that this whale oil auction will be held in the name of the exchange, and in return, we can provide the venue, manpower, and all the help we can for free." ”

"I think it's fine......" Summer Night nodded.

If this auction is held under the name of the "Port de Bousota Whale Oil Exchange", Lin will definitely do his best to run it well, so that the whale oil will most likely be sold for a good price.

Moreover, Xia Ye found Lin's idea of the "Whale Oil Exchange" very interesting...... No, it should be said that with the development of the whaling industry, such a thing as an exchange will inevitably arise. And, based on her experience in the old world, once the exchange developed, it was able to control the rules of whale oil trading, and then the whale oil trading itself—perhaps even Lin herself was not aware of this at this time.

"Can I take a stake in your 'Whale Oil Exchange'?" Summer Night asked suddenly.

"Huh......?" This question was completely unexpected by Lin.

"This ...... Belch...... After all, we are a subsidiary of 'Ether Exploration'...... In terms of process...... Shareholder consent is required to participate in the exchange, but I don't think it's a big problem, because we basically haven't asked about it, and we are completely left to our own toss......

"However, Miss Summer Night, I think I still need to remind you: if you really participate in the shares, I'm afraid you have to be prepared to post a lot of Mo'er every year......"

Xia Ye looked at Lin's sincere expression and couldn't help laughing: "Let's talk about this later, now, let's hold the auction first." ”

……

……

"Final...... It's finally ......"

Outside the crowded port of Debussota, a young witch with short red hair was panting and talking to herself.

Because the air was too congested, she ran 20 kilometers on her two legs and ran to the port.

Nana, 15 years old, 155 tall, profession is a courier, the advantage is that the body is particularly good.

For the girl, today is a lucky day and an unfortunate day.

Luckily, she met Debussota's focal point, the daughter of a wealthy family from the upper district, and the unprecedented Moby Dick killer on the road, Lord Summer Night.

Unfortunately, she didn't even recognize each other! I also said a lot of nonsense in front of each other!! By the time she finally realized who was in front of her, Lord Summer Night was gone......

However, if you can meet each other on the road, it means that the destination of Lord Summer Night is also a port, so as long as you rush to the port of Debussota as soon as possible, you should be able to see her again.

"Puerto de Bousota Whale Oil Exchange Auction?"

On advertising screens, posters, banners...... Everywhere there are advertisements for the so-called "auction", what to auction? Whale oil? Nana was a little confused for a moment.

There was a commotion all around, there were people everywhere, she wanted to find someone to ask, but the advertising screen in the huge advertising screen suddenly turned into a live video:

A witch who claims to be the head of the Port de Bosota and the Whale Oil Exchange announces the official start of the auction of Beluga whale oil, and after a series of introductions about the auction rules and auction process, Nana suddenly hears the other party say:

“…… We are honored to have Miss Summer Night, the current focus of Debussota, give us a talk entitled "We Choose to Hunt Moby Dick"! Please—"

On the screen, the white-haired and red-eyed girl slowly walked to Lin's side and took the microphone from her hand.

It's really a summer night!

The girl on the screen is the girl she met on the road!

Nana felt her heart pounding, excited and remorseful.

The crowd around suddenly erupted in cheers, and everyone may not care what the other person is going to say, but just seeing the spotlight on the Internet appear alive is enough to make people excited.

Nana had the same thought, gritting her teeth and squeezing into the crowd in front of her, her body suddenly feeling like she was stuck in a quagmire, and every step forward would encounter unimaginable resistance.

However, for Nana, who is not only fast running, but also has a lot of strength, this is not an obstacle that cannot be broken through. She squeezed through the crowd and moved step by step in the direction of the podium.

She wanted to go ahead, and once again saw the Summer Night Adults with her own eyes, not just through the advertising screens on the tall buildings on either side.

The speech had already begun, and the sound of the summer night's speech echoed over the crowd:

“…… Why, one asks, believe the gibberish of a bankrupt captain, why hunt down an ethereal beast? ”

“…… To these questions, I would like to answer them with a rhetorical question: Why did you invent the aetheric ramjet thruster? Why are we sailing into the dangerous Aetheric Sea? Go back hundreds of years – why did our forefathers, the great witches, run through the bottom of the Aether Sea and erect magic drills to build the Debussota?

“…… We chose to hunt this beluga whale because it was right there. ”

“…… We chose to hunt this beluga whale, not because it was weak, but because it was dangerous and powerful. ”

“…… We chose to hunt this beluga whale because we witches are the masters of this world, not some other giant beast, and we choose to hunt it because we have enough strength, wisdom and determination that we can unite for a goal and put anything we want in our pockets......"
